This is for everyone going through the loss of a loved one. It's the worst thing we have ever had to live. I will make with God's help.❤

I miss my husband so much ❤

Losing a loved one is so painful. Thankfully videos like this helps us heal. Going to Synagogue, Grief Share even Church, our any religion helps. I don't care about the religion just want to listen to others who have gone through the same thing I am going through.❤

This is so true, I wanted him back so much. miss my husband so much. I didn't remember because it was so tramatic. My husband died from demitia, and I thought he was just getting old. He was in the last stage, demitia, and I didn't know-- he would old things but forget new things! I miss him dearly!❤ I thought my husband would come home, and he didn't. I miss him so much!❤

I think it’s less of a decision and more of a realization. Someday I’ll be ready, realize it, and that’ll be the day.

Music is totally unnecessary here

Counseling is a dam medical/ educational opinion. I dont think any professionals have the right to tell a grieving person what to do with their loved ones ashes. Its like these rules have been made by people that have not lost a close loved one. And you are a grief counselor?!!🤦🏼‍♀️

Thank you

Spirit is more present in their loved ones lives than they were in physical life, they are present with every thought. ❤️

10 years later -no it doesn’t. Every day. 😭

The words you say are so true lonleness with out them is terabble and you do feel so a lone

I knew this video was posted long ago. I lost my wife to sepsis and she was only 54. The amount of guilt I feel is terrible because if I just would have stayed with her rather than having to go to work. The next day I went she never woke up what did she go through while I was at work. She died a week before we got a really large accident settlement from a surgery I had but I was afraid to get it because of the severity of the surgery.. how do I forgive myself I don't know how. I'm stuck in a guilt stage the wound isn't closed its large open and gaping. I do like what you said though because I was her caregiver with amputations and the wound care provider! This was such a wonderful Father's Day gift I didn't think I was going to get anything! God bless you

I can't sleep, don't want to eat or take care of myself. My Mama passed away last Friday afternoon. So 4 days until the afternoon. She was my world. I took care of her over a decade and she was doing great when we got her into the convalescent home for 2 years and then they moved her and stressed her out until she got so tired she gave up and wanted to go see my Papa who died 21 years ago. She never recovered from that loss. Now I'm devastated 😢

7:09 When my brother called last Friday afternoon to say Mama had passed away in her sleep we both said, We're orphans now, we're orphans now.😢 But then I remembered I have a Heavenly Father so I never an orphan.❤

My mother in law passed on Mother's Day 2024. We had her in a memory care facility. There is no time to wait and decide at all, so I brought everything to my home except for a dresser. I then began the process of washing, sorting and categorizing to see what family members would like first. I'm doing this now because I know there is a large storage unit with a monthly fee that will need to be looked through also. In my opinion, addressing and taking care of her property left behind is a form of respect to her.

People really do say ignorant things in a desperate attempt to try to somehow create a silver lining for us and it often doesn't resonate. For example when people told him at least he has his boys and he won't be lonely. How naive and ignorant for someone to say that and not realize there is a complete difference between the love of a father and his children and the love between his wife and himself. A child can never replace a spouse.

Exactly how I feel - May 22/24

I didn’t want to celebrate the holidays at all

My first Christmas without my husband SUCKED

I wish I had your video when my husband passed

I wish you were my therapist after my husband passed

Perfectly normal

People who think you should be pulling yourself together after 3 months, don’t know sht

I’m sure you did, I cried right through Frank’s service 😊

That’s what happened to my husband Frank.

Oh God you poor thing

Love your videos

I actually enjoy the holidays and look forward to them.

The holidays were tough for a long time, now the grief has lessened but seeing ornaments with our names on them

I can think about how he would handle some situations

I’m now able to talk about things about my husband

Frank didn’t suffer, he went quick, I guess that’s a good thing, but still hard as hell for me

I wish I listened to you when my husband passed

When my husband passed, I would see older couples and think that should have been us damn it

That was true with me, I felt soo helpless

Only God has control over life and death

Why didn’t I insist that he go to the hospital that Thursday morning he woke up with shortness of breath.

A lot of them

I felt guilty about an argument that we had 6 days before he passed about my doctors office pharmacy s stupid rules concerning my pills

He wouldn’t want you to feel guilty for the rest of your life

My partner of 7.5 years passed away Thursday night unexpectedly. He was only 33. We had so many years left together I thought. We were going to grow old and be together forever. We weren’t married yet, we were engaged, but we thought of each other as husband and wife. We thought there was plenty of time to get married. I have had a hard time realizing that he is gone even though I was there. I saw it happen. I woke up this morning feeling as though I might die of the pain in my body’s realization that he is gone. I feel physical intense pain. I am so scared of what is to come. I’m afraid I won’t be able to handle this. He was everything to me, he was a big purpose to my life. I am lost and it’s only been a couple of days. Lord please help me.

I lost my wife of 36 years in January 2024 to ovarian cancer. It’s now been about 5 months, and these grief attacks are very real to me. My grief councilor tells me I’m doing as well as could be expected at this point, but this roller coaster ride is very tiring. I miss my Cheri so much!

I’m sorry Allister. I wish I could go back to 2012 and change things. That year was a crossroads. I love you you always and forever, mom ❤️

I am so glad i have come across this video. I have recently lost my wife, and im going through all this. I can't thank you enough for posting these videos.

🇨🇦🫶❤️Thank you ! The Video is Amazing and Helpful 🫶❤️🇨🇦

The way you ecspress your loss and share your grief ....helps me to move through my day...Will listen to this often...Lost the love of my life March 8 2024....its still very raw 🙏 🌹

My brother died in November 2023, I have his ashes with me. I can’t scatter him or leave him somewhere. He had his best friends ashes for 2 years.. something I didn’t realize so I have his ashes too. I’m to upset still to put him somewhere else.. my mom is buried in Texas and my dad is buried in Missouri. I live in Colorado... he is staying with me

correct

Thank you for sharing your experience with grief. I lost my husband of 49 yrs. 11 months ago. I am having quite a few “ grief attacks.” It hurts so much. But, slowly, I’m better today. I know waves of grief will hit me often, but I also know that I’m not alone. The Lord is my Shepherd. He is with me in the valley of the shadow of death. His light leads me through and out of that place. I’m so very grateful for His faithfulness to me.

I lost my wife of 36 years on January 8 2024. I’ve been watching your series of videos and they have really been a great help to me.
